I'm actually attending therapy, on a regular schedule, and struggled to find a good therapist.
Shop around? You're inviting someone to perform online brain surgery on you. Fortunately, you can undo the operation if you don't like it (sort of). If you don't like what the therapist is doing, keep looking for a different therapist that works for you.
I've heard a story where a therapist got upset with their client because the client said, during a therapy session, they were going to find someone else.
Simple point of order: I don't need to tell my therapist if they're fired. I just walk away.

That would be a clear sign of a bad therapist. There very much has to be room to discuss seeing someone else, and whether the therapy relationship is working.
- sounds 7y agoYes, obviously, that was my point. But an additional point is worth making, the kind of thing that a good therapist would help you see. > I don't need to tell my therapist if they're fired. I just walk away. I am stating that as clearly as I can there. If my therapist starts acting in a way that makes me uncomfortable, no more talk. No need to talk. I don't need my therapist's permission to walk away. I just. walk. away.
